WON BY THE CORONET.
MR.. BUSRS YACHT WAITING FOR THE
DAUNTLESS AT QUEENSTOWN.


HIGH AND SWEPT ALONG BY HURRI-
CANEs-ALL wELL-wHAr HAS BE-
COME OF Mr.. COLTS vEssELf
1T WAS LAST SEEN OFF
FIRE ISLAND.
The great ocean yacht race for sweepstakes
of $4,000, which began on March II
from Bay Ridge, was finished yesterday
noon in Queenstown Harbor. The COronet
crossed the line off Roche's Point
at 12:49:55 p. M, Irish time, making the
passage in IA days, 10 hours and 3 minutes
actual time. Up to late hour last night moth
ing had been heard of the Dauntless at Queens
town.
The officers of the Royal Yacht Club OF Cork
had been waiting outside of the harbor
for the winner. The wind was blow
ing hard and the stately schooner, with
full spread of sail, stood proudly up to the
crossing line, firing her five guns and showing
her signals of triumph. TO all appearances
she had passed uniniured through
the terrible March gales which just
now sweep the North Atlantic. No lives had
been lost, no seamen had been injured.
For the unusually rough weather that
the yachts had encountered the COronets
time of passage is most creditable. Even
though the Dauntless should be beaten
twelve or fifteen hours in winds and
seas that would have swamped ordinary
yachts, she will have made an average record of
nearly 200 miles day. The CorOnets
record is, of course, trihe over two hundred
miles day. 1t is the victory of new boat
over veteran racer. The Coronet's superiority
was plain at the start here to few. All VIII
rb. in
made better time in summer weather; but 1t
is doubtful if there is another yacht
ahoat that could have borne the strain of such
a race and shown the speed and sea-gOing
qualities that Mr.. Bush's new schooner COronet
has displayed
The Coronet people believe that the Daunt-
less will be twenty-four to thirty hours
later in arriving. Navigator Anderson says
the weather was the worst he ever experienced
in all his ia Atlantic passages

The people of Arkansas are to be con-
gratulaJed ON the fact that they haYe had
the good sense to avoid heated fight on
a prohibition amendment such as lately
excited the people of Michigan Texas
and Tennessee. In all these states the
amendment was defeated, although in all
of them there was strong temperance
sentiment and one that is constantly
growing. But public sentiment did not
demand a prohibitory amendment. So far
as the regulation of the sale of liquor is
concerned no state in the Union has bet
ter laws than Arkansas. We have the
license law by which liquor can be ezclu-
ded from the county by majority vote,
or by the ruling Of the county judge with
out reference to the vote on the question
Then we have the "three mile law" by
which the sale of liquor can be prohibit
ed by vote of the adult inhabitants of
the three mile district. In view of these
laws there is no demand for an amend,
ment, and certainly none for the many
special liquor laws that consume so much
of the time of our Legislators The only
effect Of the special legislation is to bring
the general laws into distrust,-Arkan,
sas Democrat.

1t would be surprising to great MAORI
ty of our people who were Indifferent
about the Exposition to know Of the large
number of men, with note book in hand,
jotting down matters Of interest and facts
for future investigation every day since
the Exposition opened. They know that
they are thus offered an opportunity to
see the whole state at a glance, and are
not slow to take hold of it. or course
the counties best represented will reap
the richest reward, and we should have
appreciated the splendid opportunity for
advertising the resources of Sharp county
to the world that this grand state fair Of
fered. While our exhibit has received
prominent mention and has attracted con-
siderable attention, we cannot but reflect
hat We might have done had a greater
interest been manifested We hope that
the experience thus gained will be. sufi-
ciently profitable to arouse the citizens oI
Sharp to the vast importance of such en-
terprses should another opportunity

The enthusiastic homage which the
Southern people are ready to pay to the
name and presence of Jefferson Davis
doubtless owes much of It's fervor to the
malevolent and unjust attempt to make
him the soape"goat for whole people,
They justly resent any disposition to
make him the vicarious sufferer for deeds
for which the whole South was as respon'
sible as he. HIS promotion to conspicu-
ous leadership was due to the possession
of splendid and commanding abilities,
and it is absurd to make the contention
that he acted a guilter part than the hum
blest private who bore a confederate mus
ket.-P0st-Dispatoh.

construction on the new law which for.
